Senjutsu 2CD Digipack with CD-sized Lenticular Collectible Art Card -Iron Maiden's 17th studio album Senjutsu, their first in 6 years, was recorded in Paris with longstanding producer Kevin Shirley and co-produced by Steve Harris. For Senjutsu - loosely translated as 'tactics & strategy', the band once again enlisted the services of Mark Wilkinson to create the spectacular Samurai themed cover artwork, based on an idea by Steve Harris. With a running time of a little under 82 minutes, Senjutsu, like their previous record The Book Of Souls, will be a double CD album.
Senjutsu (+lenticular Art Card) on CD is a powerful studio album by Iron Maiden that showcases the band's unmistakable blend of melodic heavy metal, intricate songwriting and epic storytelling. The album features expansive compositions, dynamic tempo changes and richly layered guitar harmonies that reward attentive listening, from thunderous anthems to atmospheric, progressive pieces. This edition includes a lenticular art card that brings the Samurai-themed artwork to life in a striking 3D-like effect, making it not only a listening experience but also a collectible visual highlight for fans. The CD format delivers clear, detailed sound, ideal for appreciating the interplay of guitars, bass, drums and Bruce Dickinson's commanding vocals.
